Victoria Harbour [NAT]

OS 1:10,000 map, 1982.

The harbour consists of a stone built angled jetty with a secondary pier to the E. Some modifications have been undertaken since 1945. Several store houses survive around the E side of the harbour. Traces of the tramway are also found at the N end quayside.

Visited by RCAHMS (DE, AL, JM), 25 February 4th and 5th March 2009.
